I'm a recent graduate of Classics BA with a Year Abroad (2017-2021). I am now looking to focus on my writing. I am specifically interested in travel and cultural writing; however, please reach out to me on any project as I am eager to learn beyond this area and expand my horizon. I have Substack, which I have recently started, so please take a look at my writing to get a feel for my style and interests.
If you would like to know more about my experiences, interests, skills, or anything else, please contact me!
